I stayed at the Deja hotel across the road, access to Doctors cave beach is included in the hotel room prices and the hotel provided me a beach towel. -I only went here once on a monday morning from 9am-11am. (its open from 8:30am to 5pm). -while i was there, there was very few people on the beach. maybe 5 or 6 in total. 3 in the water. A few service people setting up the bars and resturants, and some rakeing the sand on the beach. There was i think 3 life guard towers with life guards watching. -Beach was nice, pure sand, kinda light sand like coral sand or something. water was clear. you can see on google maps satellite view that there is some patches of sea grass and rocks in the deeper water. I did see some fish around these rocks, less in the grass. -there is some trees for shade, or you can rent a umbrella and chair. There is floating trampolines (2 of them) in the water to use. -because i used a ticket from hotel to get in, or maybe they just do for everyone, but i got a stamp on the way out that was good for the day, so i could return. -there is at least one long wooden dock you can walk out on and look in the water or watch planes landing. Overall it was a great sunny morning on a empty beach, but i think durring cruise ship times and afternoons are busy times and might be crowded.

All my years living and visiting Jamaica, I never made a stop at Doctor's cave until now. Totally regret it. What a great beach! The service drops off when the cruise ships are in port and the food is ok. But the beach is well kept and the sand is amazing. You don't find that mixed of sand and sea shells on much beaches in Jamaica, that's not to say the other beaches aren't good. You just don't see those small sea shell mixed in the sand. It's about $8-9 US entry fee which is good! Another $7-8 for rental of beach chairs and umbrella each. Again not bad! Just be aware if the cruise ship is docked for the day, that's going to bring a crowd. Even with the cruise ship community there's still space to get around and enjoy yourself. They have coconut trees for extra shade, outdoor and indoor showers with a changing room. I have to give it up to the employees, the property was well kept and the service other than the bar was 5 star and that's a lot coming from a "yardie" Here's something you should do when you get in the water. Push your feet into the sand, then move them back and forth. The bottom of your feet become so smooth it like a therapeutic treatment, all while watching the airplane landing. Enjoy yourself Parri!

We had the opportunity to explore Doctor Cave both during the evening and the daytime, and it proved to be a delightful experience. When we visited at night, it transformed into a sophisticated night club, creating a pleasant and relaxed ambiance. During our daytime visit, we were captivated by the beautiful beach club atmosphere, complete with a plethora of entertainment options. To gain entry, we paid a reasonable fee of approximately 37 American dollars, which covered our entrance, as well as the provision of an umbrella and seating. In terms of cuisine, I decided to sample the curried goat with rice and peas, and I must say, it was expertly prepared and bursting with flavor. Additionally, we indulged in a variety of beverages, as the bar exuded a lively and enjoyable party atmosphere. All in all, Doctor Cave is certainly worthy of a day visit, as it offers a fantastic array of amenities. The sea itself is a stunning shade of blue and possesses remarkable clarity. Moreover, there are numerous spots conducive to a memorable holiday photo.

Best private beach in Montego Bay, Jamaica. Cost around $8 USD per person to enter with an additional charge for chairs, towels, and an umbrella. But you can pass on the umbrella if you get there early enough to claim the shade under one of the trees. The beach is clean & well manicured. The snorkeling was also shockingly good. I got to see a great array of coral and fish without having to trek deeply into the ocean. I also felt very safe here. I didn’t have to worry about my things getting stolen & the staff were super helpful. There are two food joints on the water, as well as a coconut stand. Highly recommend grabbing a coconut to replenish your electrolytes after a long day of swimming. At the end of the day, you can rinse the sand off at one of 4 washing stations. The only con is that it closes early, so you don’t get to enjoy a night swim.

Clean beach with top service and good showers. The sand has a very comfortable consistency so it’s a very big pleasure to just lay around or swim in the crystal clear water. The water is predatory deep and there are floating Trampolins from which you can jump into the water. Either use a lot of suncream or rent an umbrella for 7$ to prevent a sunburn :). Some of the staff are friendly, others not really. The food is tasty but unfortunately you only get a plastic fork and no spoon. The drinks are small and pricey. The view over the bay of Montego Bay is very nice and I really had some good hours. There also is free wifi, wich works pretty well in the morning and the afternoon, when there are not to many people. When the place is packed, the wifi is bad. I would only go there when no cruise ship is docked.

Beautiful, paid beach with decent food options. Bring goggles and swim shoes because, if you hang out by the pier on the right, you'll see a ton of crabs and fish and some coral! If you're trying to avoid a surprise visit to Nemo and his buddies, stay to the left where you'll have clean sand and crisp blue waters. I wasn't too keen on going to a paid beach initially when I had several free options right next to my hotel, but being pestered to buy things and talk will wear on you, whereas here you will not have to endure any of it. Note: as of July, 2023, you cannot separately rent towels. I inquired at the gate and at their merch booth and everyone insisted they were not available for rent. Umbrellas are available, however. Great food and drink options on site, with music, too.
